Well I had no idea who he was, but it turns out that this guy Jim Carrey is a famous comedian from cannuckistan. Apparently he makes movies as well. This guy is a real nutjob, and I thought that it might benefit the congregation if you saw THIS interview with the fool, talking about his "spirituality".

This is what happens if you are a lost cannuck wallowing in Hellywood debauchery; you walk far from Christ. See if you can find all of the insane demonic beliefs he mentions.

The spiritual side of Jim Carrey

"I promise you. Whatever happens to me in my career will be because of a good thing — even if it looks bad on the surface."
On the surface, Jim Carrey has had a rough time recently with high-profile movies collapsing amid whispers of excessive demands.

But the 44-year-old actor seems to be doing just fine, thanks. Whereas past interviews have found him more than a little angst-ridden, today he's relaxed, gracious and more than happy to turn talk of career frowns upside down.

Carrey's new movie, "The Number 23," is an over-the-top psychological thriller about a man whose life unravels after he becomes obsessed with ... yes ... the number 23. We thought we'd have some fun with Carrey, pepper him with some number questions like "John Lennon had his #9 Dream; do you have any 23 dreams?" That kind of thing.

We did just that, but the conversation took a left turn, with Carrey revealing the source of his contentment these days, a live-in-the-moment spirituality that he says blocks out the pressures of a Hollywood career.

"I've never seen Jim happier," says "The Number 23" director Joel Schumacher, who worked with Carrey a decade ago on "Batman Forever."

And, at least for the course of our time with him, Carrey's go-with-the-flow, follow-your-bliss mellowness bears Schumacher out.

Q: Why have 13 and 666 simply lost their luster?

A: When I lived in Canada, a friend of mine would point out license plate numbers and our birthdays and everything added up to 23. And it started popping up. The earth rotates at a 23.5 degree axis. Each parent gives their child 23 DNA chromosomes.

It's everywhere, good and bad. For me, it's a fun game the universe plays.

Q: That friend from Canada ... is he in a padded cell now?

A: No, no. Twenty-three isn't always disastrous. But, come to think of it, he has become pretty obsessive over the years. He has scrapbooks. I'm not going there. To me, it's a little tap on the shoulder that reminds me that something could be magical here.

Q: The number as a code to deeper meaning?

A: I don't believe in white men with beards, but the energy behind everything is absolutely unmistakable. It's undeniable that there's some intelligence behind it.

Q: Are you a religious guy?

A: I'm a spiritual guy, not a religious guy. I believe in taking truth from whatever source you find it, and if it fits like a pair of old shoes and you feel like you've known it for your whole life when you hear it, then it's the truth.

Organizations ... they become corrupt sooner or later and have to protect themselves to convince people to believe in them.

Q: I know. I saw "The Da Vinci Code."

A: Yeah right. I just go through life. One of my passions since I was a little kid was to learn the secrets of the universe. So I read a lot of different philosophies and I take the things that generally cross over in all of them.

Q: Some would say such a smorgasbord approach dilutes the truth.

A: Not me. When it comes to Jesus, you know, he said a lot of incredibly impactful, wonderful things that were amazing and completely misunderstood for the most part. Somebody might not understand "nobody gets to heaven but through me." They might take it literally. I believe it means "by loving like I love and forgiving like I forgive."

Q: Not everyone would peg you as a spiritual seeker.

A: I love it. I was down in Malibu one day, getting some ice cream, and I ran into a bunch of kids from Pepperdine who were studying theology. And we just got into this deep debate about all these things from the Bible, like original sin. It's fascinating.

Q: Does the spirituality provide some refuge from the pressures of Hollywood?

A: It's been incredibly helpful. I used to think that the parts I did or the fame would define me and someday complete me. After a while, I understood that those things could be crossed off the list of things that will do that. I wish everybody fame and fortune so they can cross it off the list and move on to something else.


Q: So your production company — JC23 — has more to do with the 23rd Psalm than your fascination with the number.

A: A friend gave me a book about the 23rd Psalm and I thought, "That's a great way to look at my life and career. To make choices without fear. To know that I'm taken care of, that I'm all right. And I can choose boldly." And in Hollywood, the line about a banquet in the midst of your enemies is not bad, either. It makes you feel better.

Q: Given all the historical and pop references in the movie to 23, I was surprised you didn't use 9/11. (Add the numbers in 9/11/2001 and they total 23.) It's in the trailer.

A: It's still too close. Yeah, it is freaky. But I don't fear it. The Mayan calendar ... if you think about that, it's kind of depressing. We've only got five years left.

Q: You're kidding. The Mayans predicted an apocalypto ... er ... apocalypse?

A: Dec. 23, 2012. The exact same date predicted by (psychic) Edgar Cayce, who said we'd be hit by something that would knock us off our 23.5-degree axis and shift the plates and cause gigantic earthquakes.

Q: Well, that's going to change my 401K contributions.

A: You know, I figure if we've only got five years left, what an honor to be here when the whole thing goes up. I'm getting a lawn chair. It's a drag we gotta go, but wow ... this meant something.

This is one hell-bound fool.

So he believes that the universe plays games with the number 23, but he doesn't believe that it's possible for a white man to grow a beard?

It is sad that fool never could make the connection that the reason why the number 23 was turning up so much was that God was trying tell Him God is getting feed up with Carrey's sinful ways. Satan will have a special place for Jim "I'm the feme homer in tights" Carrey for being part of that Finish homers in rubber orgy they called Batman Forever. Jesus weeps at that retelling of the depraved homer lifestyle with the drag queen verse macho-leather boys thing disguised as a child's cartoon.

The Lord only knows how many boys Carry has turned homer.

The falsehood of numerology, beautifully displayed for your viewing pleasure!

Q: Given all the historical and pop references in the movie to 23, I was surprised you didn't use 9/11. (Add the numbers in 9/11/2001 and they total 23.) It's in the trailer.

How does that work, exactly?

When I add the numbers, I get 2021 (9 + 11 + 2001).

If I just add the digits, I get 14. (9 + 1 + 1 + 2 + 0 + 0 +1)

It's only if I decide that some are digits and some are numbers that I can get 23. (9 + 11 + 2 + 0 + 0 + 1)
